Link to the Toroidal Page Jeff kindly sent me a 3D printed version of his new prop to test. This was not the final version, and as it was printed, it was plastic, not Aluminum. The results from testing are amazing, truly a step forward, and I wanted to share them… Of all my props, (and I have a lot of props!) this new prop: 1) ‘feels’ the best. 2) has the longest run time. Feel; Quantifying feel is impossible; here are my best descriptions: The prop feels ‘lighter’…it spins up faster, while providing great ‘bite’ (ability to accelerate). When rolling off the throttle, the prop offers less resistance, it allows the wing to glide farther and requires less...

Last week, my friend’s house burned to the ground. The source of the fire was a lithium battery stored inside its case, located in his roofed front porch. He discovered the fire just as it was starting and emptied his fire extinguisher onto it—but it was no use. The flames quickly spread, and within five minutes, the entire house was engulfed. By the time the fire department arrived—only nine minutes later—there was nothing left to save. His family of four escaped with just the clothes on their backs. Tragically, their cat perished. Efoil battery fires happen more often than we like to admit, and it's time we start talking openly about the risks. We all love this sport, and many...
This blog will walk you through the replacement of the two Lip seals and perform your own oil change. EfoilSolutions provides a full kit but cannot offer technical assistance.

If the propeller is jammed, you may try to: a. lightly tap on it, b. soak it in water for about an hour, or, c....
